If everyone views the Niners sucking, why aren't the Rams playing Goff to play the bad team? #mindblown #underdogs

Originally posted by SmokeCrabtrees:Carolinas offense was like ours from 2012, that's what it reminded me of... IMO if you're a disciplined team w/good coaching, it's not hard to contain and nothing special. That type of year where you say well read option and play action until the wheels fell off and it did so hard in the SB. They're a good running team, that has shaky pass protection, you gotta take the lead on them and keep Cam in the pocket. Honestly same formula VS Sea. Which now thinking about it is a good thing having them back to back as far as preparing for similar traits between the two teams and thus hoping we end up splitting between the 2...be effing ecstatic if we win both and start out 3-0.
Good read.
Would love it.
My bigger concern is the short week then back to back cross country trips. Young team. Getting used to new O.
It is certainly possible to go 2-1, 3-0
Might just be a year early for this team to turn.
Let's start Monday the 12th baby!

Thanks bae
I feel you, atleast we are young doe so it won't as a big of a burden on an older team that has so much time in their window. I'm hoping we come out week 1 like you said and we break down the door and smash out all the windows because we don't have or need any haha.
Crew love baby, I'm off on Tuesday as well so I'm preparing to get effing hyped up in the local SD Niners bar.

If we pull out a complete shocker starting 2-1 I expect to get killed in Carolina due to the travel and short turn around and put up a hell of a fight in Seattle and finally winning there

Wish I could put a 100$ bet on the game. Honestly I'd go more than that if you are going to while people have us as the bottom of the barrel which I can care less about before the season starts.

I don't get it. Only way I see Rams beating us is if Gurley goes off for 200+ and 3TDs.
Otherwise, what do they actually have that's better than is?
And a healthy Hyde is no joke.

on O i agree
but there D is no joke they have a decent secondary and the best DL in football
if its low scoring (<20) i think they have a better chance of winning

I think their D Line is good if they are playing a power style team.

This all lies on how Gabbert handles the blitz on third downs. If he throws balls into the dirt we and our defense are f**ked. Which Gabbert we gonna see?
